Something happened Sunday that not too many people thought would happen.
To put it simply: The best team in the NFC and the best team in the AFC share a stadium called Giants Stadium.
While the Giants proved that they can beat the good teams as well, the Cardinals showed that they still have some kinks to work out if they want to go anywhere in the playoffs this season.
The New York Jets, on the other hand, beat the ONLY undefeated team left. The score was 34-13. Not too many people saw that one coming. (I did.)
The Atlanta Falcons soundly defeated the Carolina Panthers to make the NFC South race even more competitive.
The Detroit Lions still do not have a single win, now having 12 straight regular-season losses.
Both the Bears and the Vikings won on Sunday to remain tied in the NFC North. However, the Green Bay Packers lost to the New Orleans Saints 51-2.
Mike Craig's Power Rankings (1-32)
1. New York Giants (10-1) (LW: 2)
Are they truly the best team in the NFL right now?
2. New York Jets (8-3) (LW: 5)
After beating the Titans as well as they did, is it safe to say that the Jets are for real?
3. Tennessee Titans (10-1) (LW: 1)
Can somebody please tell me how they won 10 games before finally losing this season?
4. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (8-3) (LW: 6)
Enough with the bye, do you think you can do that to the Saints?
5. Arizona Cardinals (7-4) (LW: 3)
Kurt Warner? Could you please tell me what happened in this game against the Giants?

So you beat the Bengals, piece of cake. Now can you go to New England and beat the Patriots?
7. Atlanta Falcons (7-4) (LW: 10)
So you beat a good Panthers team. Now you head to the West Coast to play the Chargers. Will jet lag be an issue here?
8. Carolina Panthers (8-3) (LW: 4)
Now that was embarrassing. Can you regroup and beat another team that got embarrassed?
9. Indianapolis Colts (7-4) (LW: 11)
